I have a new planner the Fluro Pink A5 by Filofax. I love it. I have being using a Electric Blue Finsbury which I do like it is my favorite color of burple(blue and purple mix) it has great pockets and large rings. It fell on the floor and the leather tore in 2 places this was not a huge drop it slide off the chair to the floor. I was upset and disappointed that it would be damaged so easily to be a leather planner. The Finsbury will now be a office only planner so it gets no further damage and I have switched to the Fluro Pink Original Filofax for everyday go everywhere with me use.
I was a bit scared to use it for fear of damage and would it hold as much as the Finsbury. The Finsbury has 30mm rings and the Original has 25mm, so far I am pleased. The leather on the Original seems thicker than the Finsbury. I am not as worried about it getting damaged. I know the rings are smaller on the Original but it seems to hold more than what I had in the Finsbury. Maybe because it has a longer strap on it and has more give.
I have 6 months of an Erin Condren planner with the note pages plus 6 dividers with other files and papers I need on a daily/weekly basis. I have 2 envelopes with stickers, post its etc items I use everyday. I also have post it notes, cards, and 1 pen. There is the standard Filofax notepad in the back I am working on a way to add a larger one. The only thing I do not care for with Original is the lack of pockets and card slots.
Here are the picture because that is the best part. I am working on getting better photos so any helpful suggestions are welcome.

I have 6 months of the Erin Condren life planner. The whole thing would fit, since I have so many other papers I do 6 months at a time.
It took very little trimming to make the pages fit. I just trimmed the edges with the spirals on it then punched. It took less than 1 hour to do.
At the back of the planner I have a envelope with stickers and the notepad that came with the planner.
A side view as you can see the tabs with the months from Erin Condren do stick out a little bit. I have seen others move the tabs to the top I may try that with the new planner, it does not bother me much so I have not altered mine yet.
As you can see there is room for more.
